The Recorded Sound Archives (RSA) is a unit of FAU Libraries Special Collections department. We are located in the Wimberly Library on FAU's Boca Raton campus.

Originally established in 2002 as a small project dedicated to the preservation of recorded Jewish music, it has matured into a robust digitization operation for all types of sound recordings.

Notes In this album created by the Judaica Sound Archives® from Cantor Schwimmer's “home recordings,” his lovely baritone voice is heard to good effect. Devoted to seven of the most basic prayers from the Friday night service the melodies are mostly from the great cantorial composers, such as Sulzer, Lewandowsky and Dunajevsky. He is accompanied by both organ and chorus.
